Hello, i am a age 16 and japanese girl. I like to make friends with you if you don't mind. I like to talk about anything but no relationships. ^^

I'm bracing for the flood here.

Hana, if you really are a 16 year old Japanese girl... I sure hope you're ready for shallow friends that are only interested in you for your ethnicity. And you better like talking about visual kei, anime, and pocky!

Noooo, Keaton, how could you?! Hahah, actually I believe it. Too many otakus only interested in "Japanese this, Japanese that," generalizing the people too -.-; I hope I don't become "enemy of otakus" because of this." ><

I don't know, I was too shy in high school to chat with the exchange students in my Japanese class (which I regret now) even though it would have been a great learning experience on both sides. Maybe I should take the chance now.

Search your feelings! You know it to be true! Join me as an enemy of the otaku, and we can rule this forum as... we'll hammer out the details later.

My penpal became the love of my life, but it doesn't have to be romantic, you could learn a lot of other things together.

Otaku, please stay out of this thread

No! I don't believe it! It's not possible! You can't be my father! NOOOOOO! XD (just kidding)

The horde has done a surprising job of self-control so far. Shit, I jinxed it -.-;;

You're right though, it doesn't have to be romantic at all. If it ends up that way...well...damn, that's great. Lucky you though! I want to find the love of my life ;[

Friends are friends. doesnt matter where they are from!

Threads like these make my disbelief detector go off quite loudly...

Agreed with Arikado and Koir. Must be some kind of otaku IP blocker or firewall. I'm baffled. At the same time, I have a few people I think could be behind this

Ha, you must prove your existence with...PICTURES!!!! jk

I don't consider myself an otaku although I do like anime and manga but its not out of balance with the other things I do. Anyway, hit me up if you'd like to chat. Be wary of the "others" on here. They may drown you.

The OP didn't mention anything about anime, j-pop, manga or anything otaku.
